Female employee of “Toyoko Inn” sexually assaulted: Collective bargaining offered
A female receptionist of “Toyoko Inn”, one of Japan’s nationwide economy hotel chains, was sexually assaulted by a male customer. We, the National Union of General Workers Tokyo Tobu, offered collective bargaining to the hotel chain’s president Sawada Munehisa on November 8, 2010 after she joined us. Soon after we sent the president a request for collective bargaining by postal mail, the receptionist, her mother and union staffs held a press conference at the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (photo). This case was caused by the company’s neglect of duty of attention to safety for employees, as seen in its insufficient system to prevent a crime. The receptionist and we will demand the hotel chain management to apologize, compensate, and take preventive measures. (Suda Mitsuteru, National Union of General Workers Tokyo Tobu)
「東横イン」の女性フロント従業員が性的暴行~会社に団交申入れ
大手ビジネスホテルチェーン「東横イン」の女性フロント従業員が宿泊客の男性から性的暴行を受ける事件が発生したことを受けて、女性が事件後に加入した私たち全国一般東京東部労組は11月8日、東横インの澤田宗久社長に対して団体交渉を申し入れました。団交申入書を郵送した後、被害女性とその母、東部労組スタッフらはただちに厚生労働省で記者会見を開きました(写真)。事件は会社による防犯体制の不備など安全配慮義務を怠った結果招いたものです。組合と被害女性は今後、謝罪や損害賠償、再発防止策などを会社に求めていきます。(東京東部労組・須田光照)
